Chandra Proposal Id #05600329

Scientific paper

We propose to add a 60 ksec ACIS-S observation to a multi-wavelength (XMM, FUSE, HST, CTIO, JCMT, ATCA) study of NGC 625, a nearby dwarf starburst galaxy showing coincident diffuse X-ray and H-alpha emission indicative of an active outflow from the starburst region. Chandra observations will allow us to isolate point sources and determine the distribution and temperature of the diffuse X-ray emission. We can then study the energetics of the X-ray superbubble and compare NGC 625 with the few other well-studied low-mass systems harboring active galactic winds, furthering our understanding of the impact of star formation on galaxy evolution.
